The Witness Blanket – TRU Newsroom

A battered show. Braids of hair. A hockey trophy. A wooden door. A black-and-white photograph. A piece of stained glass.

They are silent witnesses to the Indian residential schools era (1870-1996).

Together with 800 other objects collected from 77 sites all across Canada, they have been given a voice in a 12 meter-long artwork created by artist Carey Newman as a national monument to the children.

The Canadian Museum of Human Rights has selected TRU Williams Lake and the Williams Lake Museum as co-hosts of the travelling Witness Blanket exhibition.

This impactful and beautiful display will be on display for all to experience August 21 to October 21, 2023.
